why is jerry sandusky granting these interviews? and why is his lawyer allowing it to happen? is this helpful for him at all? >> when i first saw the interview and this morning, the first thing that comes to my mind, is why would you do something like this? the first rule of a criminal defense lawyer is you never let your client speak to the police or the press. and the reason for that is is because anything he says can be used against him in a court of law. and even if sandusky would choose in a trial never to testify, these statements can be used and introduced to the jury. and he's made some admissions that can be -- can come back to haunt him. the notion that he was with these boys. that he was in the shower with the boys. perhaps he blew on their stomach. perhaps they were in his hotel room. those are the kinds of things that the prosecution has to prove. and he's admitted that it happened. and it becomes a shorter leap of faith, i think, for the jury to take that next step of, well, if he was doing all of those things, perhaps he was doing the things he's accused of. >>
